Today, I had a fun (minus the snake and bugs!) mini-shoot with a couple of cuties! Here’s a sneak peek:

I am currently scheduling Pro Bono sessions, and the most common question that I’m getting is “What should [insert child's name here] wear for the session?”

My immediate response is: Please have them wear something that represents who they are. But, I can see how that can be pretty vague. So, here is a quick list of what to consider when choosing your child’s clothing (keeping in mind their individual personality, as well):

  • Keep clothing simple so your photos remain timeless. We can do a wardrobe change to incorporate some more trendy styles, but overall, you want to forego the frilly chiffon dresses and little suits for our session.
  • Bright colors and simple patterns are welcome.
  • Accessories, such as colorful pettiskirts, cowboy boots, a funky hat, or any other fun additions can make your photos unique, and they can really help bring out your child’s personality.
  • If more than one child is being photographed, try to coordinate their outfits but try not to make them too matchy-matchy.
  • Solid neutral colors are always a sure bet! Please try to stay away from black or white solids.
  • And most important, comfy clothing always works best. It allows me to capture true emotion and personality.

Here are a few ideas that I think would photograph well:

I hope these give you some ideas for how to dress your little ones. This is by no means telling you to go out and buy new clothes just for your session (but go ahead if you like – shopping’s fun!); please just use the above as guidance. Go raid their closets and come up with your own combinations. I’m sure you can come up with something unique and personal, which will make your photos that much more special.

If you have any questions prior to your session or if you need further help choosing clothing, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Happy dressing!
